Yes, it IS ridiculous that women are so poorly portrayed, poorly treated, misrepresented and under-represented in TV, magazines, film, video games. All media. All of society.
The same can be said of people of colour, of LGBTTIQQ2SA people, of all minorities.
Please, do not diminish a problem because it is common (or in this case ubiquitous). That only makes it that much more of a problem.
Women are portrayed the way they are because it makes straight white men happy, but it destroys the agency of women as equal beings.
